We’re bidding Ramadan farewell and welcoming Eid with arms wide open and hungry tummies. We know how choosing the best Kahk can be a real struggle; too many options, flavours, textures, and prices. That’s where we come to the rescue. We’ve put together a comprehensive guide so you can go Kahk shopping with ease.

El Abd Patisserie

The Abd’s Kahk will remind you of the good old days when we used to make our own with our grandmothers in the kitchen. The taste is priceless, and you’ll never regret getting it. Here, a kilo is EGP 110.

Mandarine Koueider

Koueider offers various types of Kahk. Costing EGP 120 for date Kahk, while Kahk with walnut or pistachio is EGP 185 and EGP 240 respectively.

Boujee Kahk (For those willing to exchange a kidney for a box of Kahk)

Le Carnaval

Have you come across a viral box of Kahk with a starting price of EGP 6,000? Well, it’s true. We wonder if it’s sugar-coated with fairy dust!

Exception Pastry & Bakery

The box or should we call it “the cupboard” is for (wait for it) EGP 3,850 L.E. *jaw drops*

We know that they’re justifying this by saying it has everything; the box is made of “drawers” filled with all types of Kahk, petit four, and Maamoul. But still, if this were made by aliens, we still wouldn’t have paid. But, as far as we know, it’s made by humans, so, why?

Budget Kahk

Kahk 3am Khaled

We know what you’re thinking, but actually, one plate can turn heads in a room. According to reviews, 3am Khaled’s Kahk is delicious and it tastes like it’s homemade. The plate is for only EGP 50, and you can find them near Hadaye2 El Maadi Metro station.

You can also spare yourself the time and effort and simply make it at home. After all, what’s Eid without Kahk?
